May 5, 2009: Sun is finally out.

  Well, the sun is finally out.  It has been a few days since we have seen sunshine.  Everyone welcomes the warmer temperatures.  We need several days of this.  Unfortunately, we will not be seeing that.  More rain is moving into the region – later tonight and possibly severe storms on Thursday – more rain on Friday/Saturday.  Rivers are already flooding.  This will only make it worse.

  I drove up to Massac County this morning.  I had to measure for the vanity in the master bathroom – and check some other measurements.  Lot of flowers blooming in the fields.  Yellow flowers 🙂 – some people call them weeds. 

  Hoping that they will have the house in the dry by next week.  Talked with Rodney and Don today.  They believe that is doable.  So, we should all hope for dry weather!  That would help.

  Looks like they are starting on the observation deck.  They asked me where I thought the spiral staircase should go.  So, we figured all of that out.  Moving along!

This is the road where my grandmother lived before she was married.  It is a few miles from where
her other house was (where she was married and where I am building now).  This hill is huge!

From my grandmother’s old home place you can jusssstttt see the top of my new house.

I always like this old railroad bridge (couple of miles from my new house)

Yellow fields 🙂

Rodney and Don were hard at work today.

I think my picture is crooked 🙂
